A Caughley tea bowl and saucer transfer-printed in the Striped Temple pattern, circa 1785-90, unmarked, bowl 8.6cm diameter, saucer 13.cm diameter (2) Provenance: Wright Collection nos. 783a + b, the saucer purchased from Jeremy Holmes and the tea bowl from Newark Fair. Literature: The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.179 for an illustration of this saucer and Newsletter May 2016 66, p.19-20 for further detail. Though purchased separately, these two items appear an almost perfect match with the same gilders' initials to the foot ring and gilded additional lines. The saucer in particular is a remarkably clear and attractive print.

Sold for £90
